Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.
The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Conclusion on CLP
Based on the data above, the substance is rapidly degradable, and neither short-term nor long-term toxic effects towards aquatic organisms of all three trophic levels were observed up to the limit of the water solubility (< 0.6 µg/L – 10 mg/L). Therefore, Castor oil, ester with glycerol (CAS 68459-67-6) does not need to be classified and labelled as environmental hazardous, according to the consolidated version of Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 (01.01.2017) and further amendments (ATPs).
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
